Jay Sonstroem spent his career as an experimental scientist for the United State Army’s “Night Vision Lab.” As a physicist and optical engineer, he specialized in lasers, optics, and electro-optics, especially infrared systems. Due to his practical experience in the physical sciences, he came to be an expert at telling real science from science fiction, storytelling, and hand waving. He is now semi-retired but continues to support the Army on a part-time basis.
